Now it’s easier than ever to have lush, colorful plants along a deck railing. This cleverly designed planter securely straddles rails made from both 4" and 6" milled lumber (actual width 3-1/2" and 5-1/2") — no mounting hardware needed. Best of all, it’s self-watering; simply fill the reservoir and plants receive water as they need it.

I was very pleased with the quality of the plastic containers. Also the service for getting the planters was very quick. Over all I have been pleased with the quality and service that I have received now and in the past.

Bought 3, 2 fell off the railing when full of flowers. Went downstairs after the first fell, second almost hit me. Totally unexpected.

Bottom LineNo, I would not recommend this to a friend

I love these deck rail planters so much that I purchased two more of them. It is the end of July and my wave petunias are full and beautiful. Usually by this time they're stringy and dried up. I highly recommend these!

I ordered 2 of these planters which fit down perfectly on my deck railing. However, even though they were filled with potting soil and water, they both blew off with a wind landing upside down and destroying the flowers. It happened twice, so wasn't just a fluck happening. So now cannot use them as planned. I ordered 2 more and now returning them since I don't need destroying anymore flowers. I called the company,however, they would not pay for any of the return shipping so not sure I will be dealing with this company in the future.

I was looking for a planter to help provide privacy for a new outdoor shower. These fit the bill perfectly, plus add the beauty of flowers and trailing vines as a bonus. They are quite sturdy and well made.

The self-watering railing planter is an Ingenious design both for the water troth with the overflow tube and for the way it will fit on 2 different sized railings. It is difficult to find a planter that will work for a 5" wide railing.
